What Is The Bruise On My Spine?
Hello! Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM! Regarding your concern, I would explain that your symptoms could be related to a chronic infection. A tumor can not be excluded either. Coming to this point, I would recommend consulting with your attending doctor for a careful physical check up and some tests: - a spine CT scan to exclude a possible tumor - complete blood count, PCR, sedimentation rate for inflammation Other tests may be needed if suspicions of a tumor are raised. Biopsy would be necessary in such case. Hope to have been helpful! Best wishes, Dr. Aida
